Giovanna’s Questions

What are your top 3 reads of 2015?
That’s a tough question. To go with some books I don’t mention that often: The Ocean At the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman, Trial by Fire by Josephine Angelini, and Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs.

What was the worst book you read in 2015?
I was very fortunate to read so many wonderful books in 2015, I did not encounter a book I disliked.

Favorite Genre?
Young adult fantasy–it’s so addictive.

Genre you will not touch?
I will generally never touch a book that’s just romance (exceptions: Jane Eyre–but this book has mystery elements as well). While I’m okay with a book having some romance in it, I do not like romance dominated plots.

Name a book that had a lot of hype, but you ended up hating it.Six of Crows had a lot of hype. I did not necessarily dislike it, but it didn’t meet all of my exceptions either.

Did you have a Goodreads goal this year? If so, did you finish it?
I did not have a GoodReads goal in 2015, but I have one for 2016. Hopefully I’ll be able to read 50 books this year, since I read 54-some last year. So far, I’ve read 5 books.

If you could kill any fictional character (Books, Movies, or TV) without getting in trouble, who would it be and why?
If I could kill any fictional character without getting in trouble, I’d say Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter. She was so nasty, evil, and irritating, but I don’t think she ever died.

How many books are on your TBR?
138 books–a number which has significantly been growing since I began blogging.

If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would buy?
Books!

Do you have any siblings?
No, but I do have a very adorable dog who I count as a sibling.

What is your dream job?
My dream job would probably be as a novelist, poet, and editor.
